Friday morning in the wee hours of the morning, I boarded a completely full plane and headed back to P'ton! Within a few minutes, all three of us (in the row) took out our blackberries! too funny! The second jaunt put me right smack in the middle of a team of college football players - rowdy bunch! It was fun - but I'm glad the trip was short.
I got there finally and spent the rest of the day with emily and chris, mostly sleeping. It was so odd being a guest in my own daughers house . . .and I was so happy that my daugher ended up with a good man. LOL chris may not like this but she sure ended with a man like dear old dad. We enjoyed Friday night dinner and then Grace came, too!!! Yay!
we looked at camp pics and finally fell asleep, after finishing my homily for Hope.
I'm wondering if it's terrible to say I had a great time at Hope's funeral??? Because it really wasn't a funeral - it really was the promotion of glory that she always wanted - the send-off, the bon voyage party! The video was absolutely incredible, the songs were rockin' "Off the chart!!!," and it was great to see the people. I couldn't stay for more than five minutes afterwards because I had to catch the plane back.
I love the people there - I would have wished for a different reason to go back but it is what is and now it's over. Except for Hope - and it's just beginning. Good for her.
